Alex Bregman facial injury

Overview

Chicago Cubs third baseman Alex Bregman suffered multiple facial fractures after being struck by a foul ball during a game against the Cincinnati Reds. The incident occurred in the fourth inning while Bregman was in the on-deck circle, resulting in injuries to his left cheekbone and eye area.

Bregman was transported to a hospital for scans, and while the injury was serious, reports indicated he would not require surgery. Following the incident, Bregman stated on social media, “Thanks for all the messages. I’ll be back.”

By late September, Bregman began light workouts, including weight room sessions and tracking pitches in a batting cage. Cubs manager Craig Counsell indicated the team does not intend to place Bregman on the injured list, aiming to have him available for the postseason and the Wild Card Round. In his absence, the team has utilized reserve infielder Pedro Ramirez and utility man Matt Shaw.
